Typically smartphone cameras recognize the moon not as an object but as a source of light. Samsung moon shots have a reputation of not exactly representing what was shot; not saying it's not a good shot but rather impossible with your big standard mobile, "even" if it's a Samsung.
Essentially, and I'm no expert, but it pulls a higher high tide in as tide cycles are linked with the gravity of the moon in a push pull coefficient...the higher the tide line, the more likely that fish will feed from the extra debris washed and gathered in, the extra sand and silt disturbance and the extra range along the coast.
I've gotten some decent bass on the full moons and spring tides so there's definitely something to it.
It's when the werewolves come out. No, the January moon is called the Wolf Moon because they used to say wolves howled more during this moon cos there was less food, they must howl when they're hungry.
Each moon of the year has a title..this one's wolf because it was thought that the winter moon caused wolves to howl due to winter hunger and lack of prey in the cold season.
I believe so, but some have European origin around harvest and such so possibly a modern blending of folk traditions. Definitely sound like native American influences at least....old wisdom knows best I guess.
Does anyone else here dislike a full moon? My grandparents used to tell stories and superstitions about full moons that stayed with me and I’m programmed to be slightly fearful of it even though I know it’s just old myths! I’ve closed the curtains on occasion when it’s been visible through the window! 😅
Also look at Jupiter next to the moon, it’s closest it will be this year. The moon is also closest to us and we are also closest to the sun today! It’s a triple event and pretty cool!
It was real nice, I took out my phone to take a pic and said to myself It doesn't do it justice and put the phone back In my pocket. It was class to view IRL
Lads get out der and look at that mewn

Cobh not looking bad but the moon is just a blob on the phone.
Looks fab
Absolutely stunning ❤️🇮🇪
Managed to catch a plane flying thru when I went out to capture it. Canon R5 II with a sigma 150-600mm lens

It's something else. My phone camera is shyte
Jupiter is visible close to it.
Yeah right below it more or less - pretty neat!
Absolutely beautiful over the Dublin skies. My phone camera is not able to do justice.

Unbelievably huge when it was close to the horizon.
Apparently, both the sun and moon are super close to the earth today. 😄
Wolf Moon, great for fishing. Was just looking at it myself.

Can you explain it’s relevance to better fishing? Is it something you’ve experienced before?
Essentially, and I'm no expert, but it pulls a higher high tide in as tide cycles are linked with the gravity of the moon in a push pull coefficient...the higher the tide line, the more likely that fish will feed from the extra debris washed and gathered in, the extra sand and silt disturbance and the extra range along the coast.
I've gotten some decent bass on the full moons and spring tides so there's definitely something to it.
The moon has a very influential affect on fishing conditions in a number of ways
I’m a keen fisherman and would love to hear if you have ever personally noticed a difference in success whilst fishing
Yes I have
What’s a wolf moon?
It's when the werewolves come out. No, the January moon is called the Wolf Moon because they used to say wolves howled more during this moon cos there was less food, they must howl when they're hungry.
Each moon of the year has a title..this one's wolf because it was thought that the winter moon caused wolves to howl due to winter hunger and lack of prey in the cold season.
That’s interesting. Is it Native American lore?
I believe so, but some have European origin around harvest and such so possibly a modern blending of folk traditions. Definitely sound like native American influences at least....old wisdom knows best I guess.

I wish I could have gotten a clearer photo, but Jaysis it was huge
Fantastic, and Jupiter will be rising under it. Full full at 10pm tonight, so my little app says.
Ah, thanks. was wondering what planet that was underneath it

Took a spin out to Howth to have a look through a telescope, really nice evening.
Then the car wouldn’t start and we had to get towed back to Swords. Not sure I’ll ever be warm again. But the moon looked lovely.

Managed to just about get Jupiter in too.
Nice, same phone, auto mode snap after work yesterday. I assume in manual could've fixed the blown out moon with exposure dialling etc.

It's gorgeous this evening 😍
Tonight we have a super moon called the wolf moon. It’s the closest the moon will be in orbit to earth until the next super moon in November.
Looked massive from where I am
Look

M O O N, that spells moon. - Tom Cullen
I nearly stopped to take a picture on the drive out of town today. What’s the deal with it tonight then?
Jupiter visible just below it too!
Tried to get a few shots of it here in galway as it was coming up but alas phone camera is shite
Where is it?
It's on the low level
That bleeding mewin, the sizer of eh.
My three year old always loves looking at the moon and he was extra excited about how it is today!
Does anyone else here dislike a full moon? My grandparents used to tell stories and superstitions about full moons that stayed with me and I’m programmed to be slightly fearful of it even though I know it’s just old myths! I’ve closed the curtains on occasion when it’s been visible through the window! 😅

Makes me wish I was home in Donegal. The stars would have been epic up there this past few nights
You wouldn't see the night sky in all its glory during a waxing moon tbh.
It is awesome tonight.
Wolf moon, first supermoon of 2026!
Look at the fucking moon
Nature's lamp post.
And Jupiter right below it!
The moon is at its closest to Earth now, it looks magnificent
It’s so sexy
And Jupiter right beneath it
You can also see Jupiter
I couldn't get a decent picture of it but it was comically huge looking at one stage
BIG MOOOOOON!
It's cold
Bloody thing kept me up all night last night.
Glad I'm not the only who noticed or cared. I saw it at work at about 4:45pm, and went in to tell my Gen Z coworker, she did not give a fuck.
It's a great sky. When you can see it.
